I drank beetroot juice every day for a month and it gave me the biggest energy buzz I've ever experienced: 😍
fiend. I drink so much coffee that the barista in Pret regularly warns me ‘it’s not good for your heart' when I order my daily triple-shot flat white at 8am to kickstart my day.
Suffice to say, since becoming pregnant and having to limit my caffeine allowance to 200mg a day , I've been struggling. Pre-pregnancy, I also fuelled my day withDiet Cokes and anything caffeine-infused to get me through the day. Now, with a toddler and job to contend with as well as self-diagnosed chronic fatigue, I've been desperately searching for a natural, caffeine-free energy boost.
I stumbled across Planet Organic's ‘fatigue fighter’ juice on Deliveroo , which is basically beetroot with a splash of apple, orange, celery and ginger and I haven't looked back since. I necked 500ml and instantly felt my energy surge to pre-pregnancy levels; in fact, I feel absolutely buzzing.
Sometimes I would neck the entire 250ml with my breakfast , and some days I would slowly sip the juice throughout the day. On the days I did treat myself to a morning coffee, I'd save my beetroot juice to power me through the dreaded 3pm afternoon slump and it worked absolute wonders. After a month of mixing up my beet juice routine , I found it most efficient when drunk in the afternoon.
I didn't experience any negative side effects and I certainly didn't miss the jittery crashes that often come after a coffee hit. My skin has also been glowing and I'm going to credit the beetroot juice over my lackadaisical skincare regime.I've waxed lyrical about my personal experience with beetroot juice, but what are the actual health benefits?
